[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 9644254, member: 6684958"] Well, that is odd. It is very common. It is just the bare honest I use. If I were to say a DM that "Runs a fair and balanced game and is a fan of the players and characters", you would see plenty of people say "that is me". I agree with you here. I love being a player that does their own thing, but I was quick to find that like 3/4 ths of all players were not like that. Tell a player they can do anything and they just sit there and say "I dontknow". I might work out in a game of smart people where everyone agrees on nearly everything. But it falls apart fast outside of that group. To me this sounds like a prequel to a game and is a huge waste of time. I know many players love this: get together and sort of play a game by doing random Slice of Life type stuff. And many players love to do this for endless hours. And if you find this fun, then go ahead and have fun. It is just not for me. But....eventually, many players get to the point where they want to do an adventure. And this is where details and the linear game come in. Humans are weird.... [/QUOTE]
